People have been talking about the L300 but not about this

If you trade in any cpu you get $100 off and if you use the pizza pizza coupon you get an additional $100 off

and currently this laptop is on sale for 1,499.99 instead of 1749.99

So in total you get this laptop for 1299.99 with $450 in savings

Yes you can do this with any trade in but I was wondering if this was a good price or not.

But that's the thing with units like that; they're not laptops, but rather they are desktop replacements. More of an "all-in-one" unit, rather than a portable.

I am looking for a hard-core laptop at over 17" for graphics, games, and video intensive capabilities.

Can you trade an old Intel III CPU? What is the pizza pizza coupon all about? Something I print off?

This is a pretty good deal! Thanks!

I'd rather configure a high end XPS with core i7

Would that be a laptop? I am looking at a sub $1500 high-end laptop, 17" minimum... what specs do you have for other better laptops?

look it up on dell.ca, and if you want something even better for gaming or higher end graphics and dont really care about how much it weights, look into alienware.

Dell has their 16inch screen, you can get it with corei7, pick a graphics card, colour, processor is up to you, you can choose 4-8gigs ram, SSD, LED screen etc..

you can make your old powerhouse....

and as for alienware, thats for most intense gamers. Great computers, the biggest con is that its not portable and quick heavy and thick. But it will do the job at its best.

I am looking for a laptop only, at least 17" and no more than $1500

alienware is too expensive, at least $1700 for their entry level

Can anyone confirm this laptop from Bestbuy comes with a '12 cell' battery as Toshibas website claims it is a 6 cell.
